We've known that LG has had an internal Blu ray burner / HD DVD player combo drive in the works for some time now, but the company has just now let loose the first pics of the format-agnostic device, as well as presumably final release date, in anticipation of its official unveiling at CeBIT. Of course, being an internal drive, there isn't a heckuva lot to see, but those side by side logos should be more than enough to impress anyone looking closely enough. Equally impressive is the price, with the drive, dubbed the GGW-H10N "Super Multi Blue," set to demand a hefty $1,200 when it rolls out in May. While the release date's been changed slightly, the drives specs don't appear to have been, with the same 4x recording speed for Blu ray discs, and write speeds between 6x and 10x for the usual line-up of DVD formats.[Via Wired Blogs: Gadget Lab]

Sorry hd dudes :)
Dave stop lying to yourself. You don't own a BD player or burner so please stop it.
Dave you are such a moron.
I agree, Dave is hands down the Worst Poster Ever
that being said, when this LG drive drops to $150 it will be a great addon haha
50 GB burner? Does anyone really need that much porn?
Disc prices for BD are astronomical. No point in burning copies of movies. If you want it for backup space you're better off getting an external hard drive as your backup.
